Hello ppl
I am Jiya and I am a silent reader most of the time. A statement really caught my attention. It was when he said that he did not think before he asked Ranvir to give him his life. He wanted something sooo much but when he actually got it then he is regretting it alot as well since he feels guilty that in order to grant his wish, god took Ranvir's life in return...or so i though cuz it seemed like he is blamin himself for Ranvir's death or something...well ppl its very true that we tend to wish for a better life and home and better family or sister or brother, etc but we dont realize that whatever god gave us is enough and good enough for us since god knows what really best for us and here we are wishin yet still he grants our wishes but we humans are very selfish...instead of being thankful for granting our wish, we criticize and regret it...so friends I guess all I want to say that we should accept and be happy with what we have instead of thinking and wanting more because greed is what ruins us too...
of course by this, I dont mean Anmol is greedy. NO. everyone wishes for their happiness and it was reasonable for him to envy Ranvir since he didnt have what Ranvir had but this thought just occured to me while I saw how remorseful Anmol was...I felt bad.
well guys, What do you think? I mean every one is entitled to their opinion and I am too!
This topic is not meant for any bashing of any character. I respect all the characters and do not mean to bash any. This was just the thought and dear Mods, please close this topic if it leads to any fighting😊
Ciao
Jiya

A very nice post. A person's word does carry weight, and so we should be careful with what we ask for…very true. We may desire a thing that is not good for us, and hate a thing that may be good for us. God ultimately knows what is best for us. I guess there was a nice lesson to be taught in Friday's episode, as you mentioned, Anmol desiring ranvir's life and now living (it) to regret it.

In addition, I also believe that, being grateful with what we have and having trust (and patience) in god's decree is the key to contentment.

A very meaningful post you have made! Very well said. I can understand how significant that dialogue was.

I agree to this statement very much because I have always spread my legs only so far as my blanket covers it because sometimes wishing for too much can only lead to disasters and this is another reason I have learned to be happy in whatever I have instead of bein envious because not everything is as it seems just like the saying "not all gold is glitter"...just because a person is rich and has everything in life does not mean that he is necessarily happy with his/her life...so instead of wastin our time in being jealous or envious, we should spend our time in being happy in the moment because what comes by today may not be there tomorrow just like Ranvir or just like Anmol's old life when he did not need to care for anything in this world😊

I liked your post above.But one thing I would like to add is that God certainly doesn't give us everything we ask for.He is much more caring, protective and loving.His love for we people is much greater than we could ever imagin.He doesn't show any kind of partiality nor does He think the way we think....He is supreme intelligence and centre of compassion...His love for each one us is unique and different.He is the one who created the heart of our mother and loves and cares for us beyond our own mother.He doesn't replace one's life for another. He knows what is best suited for us and gives us only what we want...
Bidaai simply showed us God granting Apurva's character his wish and misinterpreted Ranvir's wish....It's not at all like that.It is the CT's way of thinking.God is full of compassion and love.Does a mother ever think of killing one child for the other,simply because the other one wished for it.Then how ccould we ever imagine God doing this....
GOD is great and magnificant.We couldn't comprehend but adore him...He loves and care for us.We might see circumstances where a beloved departs from a family but it's not because someone wished for it.Sorry if I've hurt anyone.I expressed just my view.That's it!!! If at all God grants us our wish , be sure that there is some great plan behind all that.The same comes true, if He doesn't grant our wish too...He loves us beyond anyone else in this world.If He would have granted each and every wish of all humans, then just imagine how this world would be!!!!
Also God is aloving father too!!! He wants us to ask!!!Sometimes He may ignore us but he wants us to retain in our asking...If it is good for us, He will surely grant us at proper time , otherwise not.Then we can be contented with the thought that His plans for us is indeed greater than we ever think of!!!!
In Bidaai, Ranvir still wished to live with his family,with his wife,child and in RF.He probably would not have thought anything at all during his conversation with Apu's character.Similar fact goes with Apu's character and God knows all these.He wouldn't put to test Apu's character by such a tragedy neither does He take away a lovable husband from his wife(simply because he told something unknowingly) because He's great and not cruel as Bidaai Ct's....
